soliciting comments on the proposed
information collection request (ICR) that
is described below. The Department of
Education is especially interested in

following issues: (1) Is this collection
necessary to the proper functions of the
Department; (2) will this information be
processed and used in a timely manner;
(3) is the estimate of burden accurate;

Abstract: The Teacher Loan
Forgiveness (TLF) Application serves as
the means by which an eligible Direct
Loan or FFEL program borrower who
has completed five consecutive years of
qualifying teaching service applies for
forgiveness of up to $5,000 or up to
$17,500 of his or her eligible loans.
Eligible special education teachers and
secondary school math or science
teachers may receive a maximum of
$17,500 in loan forgiveness. Other
teachers may receive a maximum of
$5,000 in loan forgiveness. Borrowers
who are working toward loan
forgiveness may use the TLF
Forbearance Request to request a
forbearance during some or all of their
required five consecutive years of
teaching service. A prospective TLF
applicant may receive a forbearance
during some or all of the five-year
teaching period only if the projected
balance on the borrower’s eligible loans
at the end of the five-year period (if the
borrower made monthly loan payments
during that period) would be less than
the maximum forgiveness amount for
which the borrower qualifies.

DOE/FE Evaluation
In reviewing Cameron LNG’s request,
DOE will consider any issues required
by law or policy. DOE will consider
domestic need for the natural gas, as
well as any other issues determined to
be appropriate, including whether the
arrangement is consistent with DOE’s
policy of promoting competition in the
marketplace by allowing commercial
parties to freely negotiate their own
trade arrangements. As part of this
analysis, DOE will consider the study
entitled, Macroeconomic Outcomes of
Market Determined Levels of U.S. LNG
Exports (2018 LNG Export Study),2 and
DOE/FE’s response to public comments
received on that Study.3
Additionally, DOE will consider the
following environmental documents:
